The aim of this study is to investigate whether betanin and copper have any protective effect on spinal cord in an ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) model in rats. Spraque-Dawley rats were used in four groups: Sham group ( = 7), control group (laparotomy and cross-clamping of aorta, = 7), betanin treatment group (dosage of 100 mg/kg of betanin administered intraperitoneally (i.

We investigated whether betanin and copper have any protective effects on the heart and lung against I/R injury in rats.
Methods: Spraque-Dawley rats were assigned in groups: Sham (laparotomy only), control (I/R only), betanin treatment (100 mg/kg of betanin administered intraperitoneally (i.
